I returned to Hong Kong Island and had a half-mountain luxury house. I calculated that I had bought it and didn’t live there for a few days.

When you come to Central, where every inch of land is valuable, it is a big stage for TVB's various workplace dramas. Starting from Yuan Chuangfang, I heard that it is one of the eight historical buildings of the government's conservation project. It was once the dormitory of a married policeman on the former Hole Lihuo Road. It was transformed into the current cultural and creative park. It is a daily gathering place for Hong Kong literary and artistic youth, and it has a shop of more than 100 creative entrepreneurs and designers. You can feel the strong Hong Kong-style design when you step into it.

I met an ordinary shoemaker who insisted on making a pair of handmade shoes in three weeks. In this factory era, his persistence was touching. I would like to chat a few simple words. His optimism was impressive. I also envy those who can still stick to their dreams and personality in this era. Come on!

A few popular graffiti walls can be found in the central Helihuo Road and Jiaxian Street in the five-minute walk. Every day, many tourists stop and take pictures, becoming a new place for trendy travelers to check in.

In a strong contrast with the graffiti walls in Europe and the United States, the graffiti walls are full of a strong humanistic atmosphere and urban atmosphere. Seeing graffiti walls in Europe and the United States may be shocked, while the graffiti walls you see are more touching.

Less than 50 meters away from the graffiti wall block, there is a traditional and time-honored Taichang Cake, which opened in 1953. It is the favorite egg tart of the last Governor Patten. Unlike traditional egg tarts, the egg tart produced by Taichang will be larger than ordinary egg tarts, without the taste of greasy spices and additives, and may even feel a little refreshing.

The base of the egg tart is not a common pastry but a bit like the butter skin of a cookie. The surface of the egg tart core is slightly crusty. After biting it, it is full of strong egg fragrance. The taste is delicate and tender, and it is smooth enough to be eaten with a straw.

Continue to Dudley Street, where there is a century-old gas lantern. Now this monument has become a check-in place for literary and artistic youth. Next to the gas lantern is Starbucks, which is also the only Hong Kong-style Starbucks in the world.

When you enter the store, you can see the space jointly created by local brands. The strong nostalgic style of the 1950s and 1960s. Whether it is the window floor tiles or bead curtains, they are engraved with the taste of time, and they will provide traditional ice room delicacies, including the three treasures of ice room "thick cut butter pineapple buns, coffee egg tarts, and hazelnut coffee cake rolls. If you are tired of shopping, you may as well come and sit down.

The most popular place nowadays is probably the Daguan Historical Art Collection District. This place with a history of 170 years, the former Central District Police Station has transformed into a tide land that combines historical sites and art museums after 10 years of transformation.

It includes three statutory monuments, including the Former Central District Police Department, the Former Central Judgment Department Office and the Dollar Prison, a total of 16 historical buildings, as well as a newly built art gallery and a variety show hall. The first exhibition to appear in the main hall is 100 sides. Walking on the overpass corridor in the Central Ring Road, you can see the publicity here in many places.

Keep moving forward and come to the gate of the HSBC Bank building. What awaits you are the two lions on the Hong Kong dollar. They symbolize power and justice, and are also one of the three rare treasures of the HSBC Bank building. One opens its mouth and the other shuts up, which means that the bank will breathe funds.

Both lions have their own names, the one with their mouths opened, and the other was Steven Stitt. When they were invaded, the Japanese army plundered the lions of HSBC to the island country to prepare to blend them into steel, but before they could defeat and surrender, the British government asked to return the pair of lions to this day. If you look at the pair of copper lions now, you can still see the traces left by the bullets from that year on them.

The HSBC Building behind it looks a little different in all the buildings in Central. The building shape significantly exposes steel columns and steel trusses. It turns out that it is a building that can be demolished.

It is said that HSBC built this building to have doubts about the economic development after its return, so it used a detachable building structure when building this building. However, everything has improved over the years, and the concerns made the building have a different appearance.

Go around and find a tea restaurant to have a meal. I have experienced this feeling long ago. The most popular tea restaurant here treats everyone equally. No matter whether you are a financial tycoon with millions of dollars a second or a white-collar worker in the grid, you have to wait for seats at meal times. The store does not accept reservations or get a number.

You must not be idle when queuing, because the number of spaces in the store is uncertain at any time, so sometimes you can "get in a queue" and eat first. If you are a small group in front of you, and you are two people, then you should raise your hands in time when the waiter calls out two people, and then you can enjoy your envious gaze all the way, raise your head and chest to pass through the queue and enter the store smoothly.

Even if you have a place, you can't rest assured, because you have to prepare a table at any time, that is, prepare for a table. At this time, almost all the guys are the best space designers. They make the most reasonable arrangements based on height, fatness and number of people. Usually, you can put five thin men in a seat with four people.

So don't expect to finish this meal comfortably. It is normal to curl up and put a plate on the corner of the dining table.

When the waiter puts you in place, the biggest test is to read the menu. The menu changes from time to time, so don’t be able to see the wrong meal at the wrong time. The most common breakfasts are sandwiches, bread, eggs, spaghetti, etc.

Toast is transliterated as toast. French toast made from soaked egg liquid and fried with milk is called caytoas. Different sauces are different. Toast is called jam. Toast is called jam. Butter is added with condensed butter, while oil is used.

The more abundant breakfast is the "sandwich", which is actually a transliteration of sandwich. Because the filling is rich, the name of the sandwich is also very varied.

Egg sandwiches are called "egg treatment", and the stuffed eggs for lunch is "egg treatment". Swapping lunch meat with ham is naturally "leg egg treatment". If you want to challenge the advanced ordering method of tea restaurants, you can use "hidden options" to crush everything.

If you want to bake the outer bread until it is warm and crispy, you can say "bathing"; "fly" and "go" both mean "not", so "fly" means removing the hard crust of the bread, while "going oil" means not adding butter.

Similar to "Flying Bianyou", another chivalrous code is "Flying Sand Milk", which is mostly used for coffee, that is, black coffee without sugar and milk, which Hong Kong people also call "vegetarian coffee". Milk tea can also require "sweet" without sugar, but a more advanced way to eat it is to use a cup of "tea" to replace sugar and evaporated milk, which has a more mellow taste and does not cause phlegm to the throat like sugar. Later, on this basis, "bean walk" and "double walk" were derived.

The lemon family also accounts for half of the beverage list of tea restaurants. "Lyle" is lemon cola, "Lyle Tea" is lemon black tea, "Lyle Qi" is naturally matched with Qixi, and "Lyle Water" is of course a simple lemon water.

Holik is translated as "Heli", while Ahuatian is abbreviated as "Huatian". You can also refer to the above "Tea Walk" method to call a cup of "Huatian Walk". "Mandarin duck" is milk tea and coffee, while "Black and White Mandarin duck" is used as Haolik and Ahuatian, which is generally for children who cannot drink coffee.

Of course, eggs are also frequent visitors on the breakfast menu. "Sun Egg" and "scrambled eggs" are common terms, but "anti-egg" is rarely heard. In fact, it is a poached egg that is fried on both sides. If you don't want to eat raw egg yolks, you can ask for "ripe spring". There is another kind of "Yan Lie", which is actually the transliteration of Western egg rolls. Spread eggs and flour into cakes, and roll them with cheese and ham, which is the golden protagonist on the table.

In the old days, it was also popular to eat "boiled eggs" in tea restaurants, that is, to beat raw eggs into a cup of boiling water and stir with sugar; if it is stirred with condensed milk, it is called "milk eggs". When a guy places an order in the kitchen, he will shout: A monk jumps into the sea.
